Donating breast milk???

Donating breast milk???

I am not an over producer, but my baby wont take a bottle. She chews not sucks. On average she take 4-6 ounces per day of milk while at daycare and then eats solids, but I am pumping 12-20 ounces per day at work. My freezer is full and so in freezers at day care. As anyone ever donated before?

That's the opposite of my baby! She'll take a bottle but would never nurse properly. She'd chew on my nipple and then spit it out. It took her 24 hours before she figured out a bottle.

I haven't donated before but looked into it. I've been pumping for my daughter and quickly started overproducing. My freezer filled up fast. Ultimately, we got a second freezer. We'll need it anyway since my husband plans on going hunting and/or getting a bunch of meat from his dad, who goes hunting a lot. But if you're wanting to donate your milk you can go to nationalmilkbank.org for information.
